A while back, we were talking about using Sieve for this purpose. I set off and hacked out a version of the Sieve library from CMU over at sieve.sourceforge.net. There's still a major piece of groundwork that needs to be done for that to integrate with DBMail, but once it's together I think that's going to be the system we'll use. (if you're wondering, the problem is that CMU's lex parser wants the script in a file, but we need to pass the script from a memory buffer because it's going to be stored in the database!)
The main reason for this is because Sieve also comes with a protocol for uploading your scripts which is supported by several commercial programs, most notably Mulberry, and by half a dozen free ones (search freshmeat.net for 'sieve' and you'll see a few). There really isn't a timeline on this happening, however... coders wanted!
